The orchard economy is in full swing, and the two happiest people are Songguan Town Party Committee Secretary Zhang Junming and Town Mayor Li Guodong.
Among the fifteen towns in Cangyang, Chengguan Town, Mengchuan Town, Haicheng Town, Qingshui Town, Taiji Town, and Renli Town are large towns with a large population, rich resources, and rapid development. They are the first-tier towns.
Songguan Town cannot compare with these towns, so the development space for the town party committee secretary and mayor is far less than that of the first-tier towns.
Whenever there are vacancies in various departments in the county, the replacements are usually selected from the first-tier towns, and the cadres who come from the county government to gain experience basically go to the first-tier towns.
When the new county magistrate took office, the sudden orchard planting policy suddenly fell on Songguan Town.
This is a big project worth one billion. Once implemented, not only is there a chance of promotion, but also a lot of money. More importantly, the secretary next to the county magistrate is actually Chen Shaoping from Songguan Town...
Zhang Junming is fifty-three years old. He thought that after serving as secretary of the town party committee, he would have to go to Zhengxie to retire, but he didn't expect it. It was like pie in the sky, giving him such a great opportunity.
As long as the orchard planting policy is implemented well, you might be able to work your way up to a certain bureau in the county to be the top leader and enjoy the feeling of being a "local boss" with your own one-third of an acre of land.
It is precisely because of this beautiful vision that Zhang Junming is particularly dedicated to the implementation of the orchard planting policy, especially rural cooperatives. There are some rural cooperatives that cannot be established in rural areas, and he personally takes charge to guide the work.
Thanks to his efforts, in just one month, agricultural cooperatives were established in all the natural villages in Songguan Town that are suitable for orchard planting.
Just when agricultural cooperatives were springing up in every village in Songguan Town, there was a policy problem.
It is not that there is a problem with the policy, but that there is a problem with the project support funds allocated by the Provincial Department of Agriculture to the Agricultural Bureau.
The planting estate of Sister Zhongshan was re-registered in the name of Zhang Sanchuan and re-applied for project support funds. The application form did not encounter any resistance when it arrived at the Bureau of Agriculture. Director Qiu Shuqin signed it successfully, and Deputy Director Lao Sun led someone to check and accept it. Everything After the process is completed, just wait for the payment.
The problem arises in the payment step. The special funds from the Provincial Department of Agriculture are directly deposited into the official account of the Bureau of Agriculture.
The official accounts of the Bureau of Agriculture are under the supervision and protection of the security system of the Bureau of Finance.
However, when Zhou Yunting, a financial officer of the Agricultural Bureau, logged into the official account of the Agricultural Bureau and prepared to complete the transfer of project support funds, she was shocked to find that the official account of the Agricultural Bureau had been blocked. All large-amount project support funds have been frozen.
This was a big deal. Zhou Yunting did not dare to hesitate and immediately asked the staff of the Finance Bureau to inquire about the situation.
After receiving the news, Liu Yiting, a staff member of the Finance Bureau, quickly checked the official account of the Agriculture Bureau and found that the account had been blocked, but the reason could not be found at all.
Zhou Yunting knew the seriousness of the matter and did not dare to delay. She reported it directly to Qiu Shuqin, director of the Agriculture Bureau.
Qiu Shuqin was also surprised and hurriedly went to the Finance Bureau to check the situation. After questioning, the staff of the Finance Bureau didn't know anything about it.
In anger, Qiu Shuqin immediately went to see Han Shaolin, director of the Finance Bureau, but Han Shaolin went to Jiangli City instead, saying he was attending some training meeting.
Qiu Shuqin called Han Shaolin directly, but no one answered.
Soon, Zhang Sanchuan also received a call from the Agricultural Bureau that it was temporarily unable to transfer "project support funds" because the official account of the Agricultural Bureau was abnormal.
Zhang Sanchuan was immediately anxious when he heard the news. The agricultural cooperative has completed the signing of the contract, and all the one million from the loan has been used to contract the land. Now Zhang Sanchuan is waiting for the project support funds for the plantation estate to arrive before starting to plant fruit trees.
Now that the project support funds cannot arrive on time, he naturally will not believe that there is an abnormality in the account.
The anxious Zhang Sanchuan called Chen Shaoping almost immediately. At this time, Chen Shaoping was accompanying Li Yixiang to attend the important quarterly work report meeting of the county government and did not answer the phone.
After the meeting ended, more than forty minutes later, he called Zhang Sanchuan back.
"Shaoping, something went wrong. The project support funds cannot be received on time!"
Zhang Sanchuan answered the phone and immediately spoke to Chen Shaoping anxiously.
Chen Shaoping was also surprised, because he understood Zhang Sanchuan's economic situation at this time, and it would be extremely serious if there was a problem with the project support funds.
"What's the reason?"
Chen Shaoping tried his best to calm down his tone and asked.
"The official account of the Bureau of Agriculture is abnormal!" Zhang Sanchuan replied.
When Chen Shaoping heard this reply, he immediately wanted to curse. "What kind of stupid reason is this?" Chen Shaoping cursed in his heart.
"Sanchuan, don't worry yet. I'll call Bureau Qiu of the Agriculture Bureau to ask about the situation!" Chen Shaoping comforted Zhang Sanchuan, but did not call Qiu Shuqin immediately.
He thought carefully and didn't believe that Qiu Shuqin or others from the Agriculture Bureau were behind it.
"Bureau Qiu, I heard there was a problem with the Agriculture Bureau's account? What's going on?" Chen Shaoping asked in a questioning tone.
"Did the county magistrate know about this? I don't know what happened. I'm going to the Finance Bureau to ask for an explanation now!" Qiu Shuqin replied angrily.
"It turns out that there is really something wrong with the official account?" Chen Shaoping muttered in his heart and said on the phone: "The county magistrate doesn't know about this yet. Bureau Qiu, do you want the county magistrate to know?"
Qiu Shuqin thought for a while and said: "I am now going to the Finance Bureau to make an explanation to see if it can be handled well. If it can't be handled well, I think the county magistrate will need to come forward..."
After hanging up the phone, Chen Shaoping sent a message to Zhang Sanchuan to reassure Zhang Sanchuan: "I just verified that there is indeed a problem with the official account of the Agriculture Bureau. Don't worry, they are dealing with it urgently and it should be done soon!"
At this time, Zhang Sanchuan and Zhong Shanmei were already discussing countermeasures.
When Zhong Shanmei learned that there was a problem with the project support funds due to abnormalities in the official account of the Agriculture Bureau, she immediately realized that a bigger storm might be coming.
This storm will involve not only her, but also Zhang Sanchuan, Chen Shaoping, and Li Yixiang, the man behind Chen Shaoping.
After working hard in Cangyang for so many years, although Zhong Shanmei is not a member of the officialdom, he is well aware of the depths and shallowness of Cangyang's officialdom. Her political sensitivity even exceeds that of Chen Shaoping.
"Sanchuan, be mentally prepared. We may have to live an extremely difficult time with Shaoping..."
